NFL Betting News: T.O. Joins Ocho Cinco In Cincinnati For 2010-11

As if their wasn’t enough ego at the wide receiver position with the recently renamed Ocho Cinco catching passes from quarterback Carson Palmer in Cincinnati, the Bengals announced the signing of free agent pass-catcher Terrell Owens on Monday night. The two sides agreed to a two-year, $2-million deal that contains several different incentives depending on how many catches and yards Owens contributes to the offense over the tenure of the contract. It almost seems as though the Bengals are shooting themselves in the foot with the performance incentives, particularly given Owens’ past and the different problems that he has had over the years, as his desire to catch those marks might make him think a little too much about the money and less about his team. Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see how two of the biggest ego’s in the game will manage splitting passes.

MLB Betting News: Strasburg Suffers Injury To Shoulder

Rookie pitching phenom Stephen Strasburg of the Washington Nationals was diagnosed with a shoulder inflammation on his pitching arm Tuesday night, a short while after he was scratched from a potential start against the Atlanta Braves. There is obvious concern surrounding the righty’s powerful arm, especially given his strength and velocity, and hopefully for Nationals’ fans this isn’t a sign of things to come. The Nationals ended up winning without Strasburg, as Miguel Batista went five shutout innings in a 3-0 win.

NBA Sports Betting News: Bosh Chose To Sit Out At End Of Last Season

In an exclusive interview with the FAN 590 in Toronto on Wednesday, Raptors’ General Manager Bryan Colangelo discussed what happened down the stretch run with his former franchise player Chris Bosh during his final season with the team, and given the nature of the comments he made, it would appear as though the Toronto executive was disappointed with the power forward’s decision-making. Out for several weeks due to a knee injury, Bosh was deemed eligible to return by team doctors, and was cleared to play Toronto’s final few games as the team battled with the Chicago Bulls for the final playoff spot in the Eastern conference. Rather than play, Bosh opted to sit out and rest his knee, apparently looking past this year with the Raptors and to his future in the sport. Colangelo made sure to mention how their was no inflammation in the knee, and that their was no other structural damage revealed in an MRI, making it clear that Bosh not playing was simply his decision. The 26-year old signed a deal with the Miami Heat this offseason, effectively ending his tenure with the team that drafted him.

NFL Betting news: Cowboys Sign Bryant To Five-Year Deal

The Dallas Cowboys have locked up first round draft pick Dez Bryant to a five-year contract reportedly worth $11.8 million, with $8.3 million of it guaranteed. Bonuses that involve everything from the numbers he is able to put up to playing time that he gets will also affect how much money that he could potentially make. Bryant is the first, first-round draft pick to sign a contract, even ahead of St. Louis Rams quarterback and first overall pick Sam Bradford. Bryant was the 24th overall pick in the 2010 NFL Draft after the Cowboys swapped spots with the New England Patriots in order to climb up to grab him early on.

News reports surrounding the activities of several players from prominent schools are dominating the headlines during the Southeastern Conference media days, as details of another party that happened in Miami came to light on Thursday. South Carolina tight end Weslye Saunders and Georgia receiver AJ Green were both accused of attending a party hosted by San Francisco 49ers’ running back Frank Gore on may 15.

NBA Sports Betting News: Lakers Acquire Barnes on Thursday

One week after supposedly completing a deal that would have made him a member of the Toronto Raptors, free agent swingman Matt Barnes has reportedly signed a two-year contract with the Los Angeles Lakers. One of the most lucrative prizes still on the market given his talents, Barnes signed a $3.6 million deal with the defending two-time champions, giving the Lakers another important piece on their quest to make it three straight in light of the improvements made by their main competitors, the Miami Heat and the Boston Celtics. The contract with the Raptors was voided last week when it was learned that Toronto did not have enough money to offer the small forward, and with many teams not interested in signing him to a long-term deal worth that kind of money, Barnes made the decision to shoot for his first NBA title though receiving significantly less money.

MLB Betting News: A-Rod One Away From 600

Alex Rodriguez is now just one home run away from reaching the illustrious 600 club after hitting number-599 off of Kansas City Royals’ relief pitcher Robinson Rejeda at Yankee Stadium on Thursday night. The blast was Rodriguez’s 16th of the season, and although it is unclear where his accomplishments will rank given his history with the use of steroids, the fact that he is still competing at such a high level while leading the best team in Major League Baseball is testament to his skill and desire o win.
